TL;DR: Karyotypes did not clearly discriminate between plants with different colours of perianth segments and therefore did not provide evidence for a taxonomic separation of Allium ericetorum and A. kermesinum.
Abstract: The widely distributedAllium ericetorum and the local endemic of the Steiner Alps (Slovenia),A. kermesinum, are two closely related species of sect.Rhizirideum, whose main distinguishing character is perianth colour. To obtain further evidence for species separation, karyotype morphology and C-banding patterns were examined in 10 populations. The chromosome number was 2n = 16. In some populations ofA. ericetorum a B-chromosome occurred. Arm and satellite lengths and C-banding patterns were subjected to cluster analysis. Three different karyotype classes were observed and described. Karyotypes did not clearly discriminate between plants with different colours of perianth segments and therefore did not provide evidence for a taxonomic separation ofA. ericetorum and A. kermesinum. There is polymorphism in number and patterns of C-bands within the populations. No correlation between B-chromosomes and particular banding patterns was observed.

TL;DR: In this article, 24 taxa of chorological interest of the province of Zamora (Spain) are remarked and commented, of which 7 are cited here for the first time: Allium ericetorum, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Armeria duriaei, Arum cylindraceum, Carex humilis, Cerinthe major subsp. gymnandra and Doronicum plantagineum.
Abstract: 24 taxa of chorological interest of the province of Zamora (Spain) are remarked and commented, of which 7 are cited here for the first time: Allium ericetorum, Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, Armeria duriaei, Arum cylindraceum, Carex humilis, Cerinthe major subsp. gymnandra and Doronicum plantagineum. All taxa are poorly referenced in the studied area and several of them show a remarkable biogeographic interest. Some previous records are commented in the light of the latest taxonomic reviews.
